Full Prescribing Info
Use In Pregnancy & Lactation
Use in Pregnancy: Tigecycline may cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman. Results of animal studies indicate that tigecycline crosses the placenta and is found in fetal tissues.
There are no adequate and well-controlled studies of tigecycline in pregnant women. Tigecycline should be used during pregnancy only if the potential benefit justifies the potential risk to the fetus.
Tigecycline has not been studied for use during labor and delivery.
Use in Lactation: It is not known whether Tygacil is excreted in human milk. Because many drugs are excreted in human milk, caution should be exercised when tigecycline is administered to a nursing woman.
